I have a black les paul studio that I bought from a buddy for $800. It has the gloss finish, archtop, & gold hardware.It also has dot inlays on the fretboard and a very fat neck (I love it)It has no bindingIt is also in really great condition, just a few very small dings and no fret wear.I have not weighed it but I have held quite a few Les Pauls in my life and it is definitely one of the heavy ones.

Does anybody know what year it may have came out of? My buddy bought it from his uncle in 2004. I'm guessing it is from the 90's?

Thanks for the help guys! I found out it is a 96'It's definitely one of the best feeling, playing, and sounding Les Pauls I've ever played. Mind you I've probably only played around 20-ish.Thanks again!
